A crisp, traditional serif with bracketed serifs, pronounced thick–thin modulation, and an upright stance. The capitals are stately and well-proportioned, with sharp, tapered terminals and a slightly calligraphic finish to curves and joins. Lowercase forms are compact and steady, with clearly defined bowls and narrow apertures; the overall rhythm is orderly and text-forward. Numerals are clear and old-style in feel, with distinct shapes and strong contrast that matches the letters.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a conventional serif voice is desired. It also performs effectively for magazine features, essays, and refined headings or pull quotes that benefit from strong contrast and classic proportions.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone—authoritative and composed rather than trendy. Its high-contrast, sharp detailing adds a refined, slightly dramatic edge that reads as literary and editorial.
The design appears intended as a conventional, print-oriented text serif that balances readability with a refined, high-contrast finish. Its restrained shapes and disciplined rhythm suggest a focus on traditional typographic tone for publishing and editorial use.
In larger settings the tapered strokes and fine serifs become a defining feature, giving headings a dignified presence. In paragraph sample text, spacing and proportions support continuous reading while maintaining a noticeably crisp, traditional texture.
